1. Analyze the working of SCR using two transistor model with neat
a. 8 CO4 L3
circuit diagram.

The operation of an SCR can also be explained in a very simple way by considering it
in terms of two transistors. This is known as the two transistor analogy of the SCR. The
SCR can be considered as an npn and a pnp transistor, where the collector of one
transistor is attached to the base of the other and vice versa, as shown in Fig.1. This
model is obtained by splitting the two middle layers of the SCR into two separate parts.

Working of the SCR can be easily explained by two transistor model of SCR. As per
figure you can see with supply voltage V and load resistance R is applied to SCR. Here
first Assume the supply voltage V is less than break over voltage as is usually the case.
When the gate is open (i.e. switch S open), there is base current Ib=0. For the base of
the T2 is connected with the collector of The T1. Therefore, no current flows in the
collector of T2 and hence that of T1. So for this condition, SCR is in OFF condition.

Whenever switch S is closed, a small gate current will flow through the base of T2
which means its collector current will increase. The collector of the transistor T2 is
connected with transistor T1. So, the collector current of T2 is the base current of T1.
Therefore, the collector current of T1 increases. But collector current of T1 is the base
current of T2. This action is accumulative since an increase of current in one transistor
causes an increase of current in the other transistor. As a result of this action, both
transistors are driven to saturation, and heavy current flows through the load RL.
Under such conditions, the SCR closes.

The basic CMOS inverter circuit is shown in

below figure. It consists of two MOS transistors
connected in series (1-PMOS and 1-NMOS). The

P-channel device source is connected

to +VDD and the N-channel device
source is connected to ground. The
gates of the two devices are connected
together as the common input VIN and
the drains are connected together as the
common output VOUT.

Case 1: When Input is LOW If input

VIN is low then the n-channel
transistor Q1 is off, and it acts as a
open switch since its Vgs is 0, but the top, p-channel transistor Q2 is on, and acts as a
closed switch since its Vgs is a large negative value.

Case 2: When Input is HIGH If input VIN is high then the n-channel transistor Q1 is
on and it acts as a closed switch, but the top, p-channel transistor Q2 is off, and acts as
a open switch.
